Three hundred and fortieth chapters to break the sticky weapon
"As expected, I know it. Let's not mention this matter for now. If anyone asks again, I will cover it up for you. The fault is neither Wang Deyong nor you."
Seeing Lu Yijian's solemn words, Ye An rolled his eyes helplessly: "You are pushing me into a trap! The boy was just suggesting Privy Wang at that time. Whether he uses my advice or not is his business."
"You have to trick him to death?! You can't be patient!" Lu Yijian was already angry. He was not worried that Ye An would rebel against the Song Dynasty. What he couldn't stand the most was Ye An's appearance of withdrawing from the incident.
Ye An frowned slightly and said: "Wang Deyong is about to retire. You know he has been upright all his life. He would rather bear all the charges on his own than offend others. This time Xia Song, Fan Zhongyan and Han Qi were defeated in the northwest. He wants to
Endorsing these people will only take all the blame, do you think it’s appropriate to involve me again?”
Lu Yijian narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he was old, his majesty was still there. He was like a tiger that pounced on its prey at any time. He stared at Ye An coldly and said: "Serving the country with one's body is a great filial piety. Wang Deyong dares to take the responsibility, but it is
It's not enough. If you don't stand up to take charge of this matter, who else is suitable? Should you let me do it? I have already retired! Or maybe Wang Yaochen, Chen Zhizhong and others? They can use it and cannot abandon it, but you are different. Since you can't use it,
, then you should support those who can do things and dare to do things!"
Ye An smiled very happily. This was a smile from the bottom of his heart. He had always felt that the courtiers of the Song Dynasty were outstanding politicians rather than doers, but it seems that this is not the case today.
Wang Yaochen can take on big responsibilities, and even Chen Zhizhong can, but it's a pity for these people. They are working hard for the Song Dynasty, but they don't know that this road has already come to an end. They want to take advantage of this time when the Song Dynasty is in Haoshuichuan.
The big defeat of the new law!
Everything made sense. Ye An looked at Lu Yijian. He now knew what the old man was thinking. The people he wanted to protect were the reformists who supported Fan Zhongyan. They all saw the increasingly unstable foundation of the Song Dynasty and wanted to pass the reform.
Come to solve all problems, but they don’t know that the foundation has been welded to death. As long as reforms are made, they will be counterattacked by all forces and end in vain.
As for Lu Yijian, he just used his last remaining body to save those who might be angered by Zhao Zhen. Of course, the method was still so insidious. In order to achieve his goal, he did not hesitate to sacrifice himself, an irrelevant person, but Ye An
admit!
The old guy is not a reformist, but he is not a conservative either. He just hopes that the Song Dynasty will not become worse at this time. Whether it is in the court or in side affairs, the Song Dynasty can no longer be bad.
Of course, Ye An is more happy that the young emperor has finally matured, lost his indecisiveness, and started to have his own plans and ruthlessness. Ye An does not believe that Lu Yijian would say such things to him, and the two of them
In a sense, they already belong to parallel existences. In this case, there is no need for him to offend himself.
That could only mean that he was being used as a spearman. Who could use him as a spearman, who was a veteran of three dynasties, a dignified Sikong, and a man of great military and national importance? Only Zhao Zhen, an official of the Song Dynasty, could do it.
Since it was the emperor who wanted to shoulder the blame, it was his own fault. Even if he and Wang Deyong agreed that we should maintain an absolute force on the flanks of Xixia to contain Li Yuanhao or destroy Xixia, it would be useless.
As long as this kind of strategic intention does not appear, it will be unproven. Even Wang Deyong will be punished, let alone being a scapegoat?
Even if it was an attempted crime, Ye An admitted it. After all, the attempted crime was not framed by others, but was done by Zhao Zhen himself. Even if Ye An did the right thing, there was no way to deny it. He did strongly recommend Wang De.
Keeping the Xilie Army and the Huaiyuan Army in a state of holding back Xixia made Li Yuanhao dare not go too deep easily.
After Wang Yaochen finished drinking the mutton soup, he tidied up his court clothes, walked to Lu Yijian and gave a salute, then turned to Ye An and said: "The northwest is in turmoil, Yanyan Road and Jingyuan Road are rotten to this point, and Ganliang Er
What's the point of keeping a state but not attacking?" Yao
Ye An looked at him strangely, and then understood that this thing seemed to be just like Lu Yijian, it was just the knife in Zhao Zhen's hand.
"I'm very surprised why you came to question me? I don't have any title at all, and the title of the champion general is just Wusanguan. Do you think I can mobilize the soldiers and horses of the Xilie Army and the Huaiyuan Army? It's your brain
Is there something wrong or is there something wrong with the laws of the country?"
Ye An's attitude made everyone present slightly nod. This is correct. No matter how powerful Ye An is, he has no right to mobilize the army. Unless he, like Zhe Jimin, can get a real job assignment from the country, otherwise he will
rebel.
"As a direct bachelor of Tianzhang Pavilion, shouldn't Ye Hou advise the officials? Furthermore, I heard that it was you who suggested that Privy Wang should report to the officials. The soldiers of Ganliang must not be used unless absolutely necessary!"
"When did you become the censor? Are you here to hear the news?!"
Ye An was furious. This was too bullying. It was fine if others didn't know. Wang Yaochen, as the body's pacifier, how could he not know Gan Liang's containment effect on Xixia? If Li Yuanhao still had an ambush, as long as the Xi Lie Army and Huaiyuan
If the army leaves Ganliang, it will inevitably sneak in. Compared to Ganliang, Weizhou is nothing.
After squinting his eyes and looking him up and down for a long time, Ye An finally confirmed that this guy really didn't expect so much. He was simply dazzled by Hao Shuichuan's defeat. Of course, there was some reason why he was being used.
"Ganliang is now prosperous in the northwest, and it is a place where important weapons are gathered! The world is clear, and everything is related to the Western Expedition. Only Ganliang is standing still. Why is it? How can the prosperity of Ganliang be compared to Tokyo? How can Ganliang's armor be so powerful?
Can it be better than Tokyo?”
This sentence punctured the pride of many Song people. Tokyo City, a city supported by the entire Song Dynasty, has actually been overtaken by remote places like Ganliang. The efforts of several generations are not as good as those of Ganliang in a few years.
Wang Yaochen's hatred is also the hatred of everyone in the court...
Gradually, many people looked at Ye An differently. What Wang Yaochen said was right. Rumors in Tokyo City have begun to spread that Liangzhou Prefecture is comparable to Tokyo Bianliang, or even worse.
coming.
People are emotional animals, and it is very easy to incorporate things described by others into their own subjective feelings. Seeing the strange expressions on the faces of everyone in the courtyard, and the presence of that godly Lu Yijian, Ye An knew that Wang Yaochen's words were successful.
It aroused resonance and completely shattered the pretense that I had worked hard for over the years.
However, Ye An didn't care. He looked around at everyone and laughed loudly: "How can there be such ridiculous people in the world? Don't you know how Ganliang's wealth came from? The wealth there is just a reflection of the wealth in Tokyo!
If Tokyo City is no longer prosperous and rich, Ganliang will also decline rapidly, because the merchants of Ganliang are the merchants of Tokyo City! It is the business of you, the important ministers of the country! Do you want me to tell you?"
Ye An stared at Wang Yaochen, which shocked him, and then he came back to his senses. Looking around, he saw that the courtiers who originally looked at Ye An angrily were now looking at him with evil intentions.
It is true that Puhui Company's business in Ganliang is very large, but that kind of business involves almost all the powerful families in Tokyo City, and everyone knows that Puhui Company's head office is in Tokyo City, and its main business is in Tokyo City.
The biggest owner behind it is not the Yunzhong princes, but the Cao family. Behind the Cao family is Empress Cao, and behind Empress Cao...
Lu Yijian looked at Wang Yaochen with eyes full of sadness, a sadness that was surprised by his stupidity. Ever since he mentioned the prosperity of Ganliang, Lu Yijian knew that Wang Yaochen was finished, and the prosperity of Ganliang was the prosperity of Tokyo City.
No matter how powerful Ganliang's soldiers are, they are only protecting the emperor's wealth. Now Ganliang is nominally a state directly under the jurisdiction of the Song Dynasty. The emperor's edicts, the government orders of Zhongshu Province, and the military orders of the Privy Council must still be obeyed!
Therefore, Wang Yaochen was wrong from the beginning to criticize Ye An for Ganliang's prosperity and the strength of his armor. What he should blame was Ganliang's indifference, accusing Ye An of having too many tentacles in Ganliang, and slandering his
